So it has been a long time since my last blog. I am sorry for all those avid fans of mine, who have been waiting endlessly for my now, monthly updates. Life has seemed to take a big turn since our help has arrived. Farming hasn’t been that secluded life of living on the land fantasy. It has been much more social and vaired than I could have ever thought.
Our days and nights are very full of activity. It seems like everyone in town wants to make friends with their local farmers. It has been amazing how the community is so appreciative of local growers. I have never felt so welcome in my life. It is a great feeling.
On the field the farm has become very routine. The work has been mostly harvesting with a few side jobs being done every day. I have grown quite tired and bored of harvesting and I definitely enjoy the more vigorous labor more. I have had a lot of time to think while picking various vegetables which has me always thinking about my future. I wish I could be more content with every minute and just try to totally enjoy where I am. If that was the case I would be somewhat enlightened, so I might have some work to do.
Nevada County is an amazing place and its rivers continue to draw me closer every time I visit them. It will be very hard to leave this place next year. That is all for now.
Much Love,
Ry
